Dr Pellerin is extremely knowledgeable. My expectations were exceeded. He made me feel absolutely comfortable by explaining the procedure beforehand and talking me through it while doing it. Afterwards, he explained my condition in very clear terms and allowed as much as I needed to ask further questions. He was extremely kind, patient and compassionate. I feel very lucky to be in his care and highly recommend him.

It was excellent to see Dr Pellerin again, as usual he was most welcoming and easy to talk to. He took care of me and managed to do all the assessments of the heart using the latest equipment, in a very comfortable setup. We carried on in his office to review the findings and a plan forward, in an unhurried way. I am extremely satisfied with his knowledge, professionalism and mannerisms.
